Slog - Comments on No, Really—Worry http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/09/no_reallyworry Shots fired in US-Pakistan clash: The United States military says US and Afghan forces have exchanged gunfire with Pakistani troops across the border with Afghanistan.

Maybe we should bring all of our troops home, for the sake of their health, the safety of the country, and to quit dumping billions into Iraq a month.

Make things look like we are in so much turmoil that we cannot change leadership, and presto! Cheney-Bush third term, their ultimate wet dream.
